When using word or email program closes after five mins or so.

When typing email firefox says there is a problem and closes email. This is usually after a few mins and five plus lines of txt. It also happens when using Word after ten/fifteen minutes

There are 2 unusual options in File, Open in the Windows version of Word (sorry, I'm on a Mac without Word). One is something like Recover Text From Any Format, and the other is Open and Repair. One I think is on a drop down menu in the Open screen. I'm not sure if these are available on the Mac version, but it's worth a try! Also: do you have all the proper converters set up? I have Word 2004 for Mac running on one machine, a legal copy, and I was able to do updates and even get a free conversion program that actually backward converts Word 2007 for Windows and Word 2008 for Mac files down to Word for Mac 2004. It's worked quite will. I support Word on Macs and Windows at work and have used that conversion utility to great advantage when we had users call with Word docs that wouldn't open. Good luck!

    I have a Mac computer and am trying to use a Photoshop CS4 program, but after accessing my desktop files through Adobe Bridge and clicking twice on any of the pictures to get into Photoshop, instead of entering photoshop, I get on the lefthand side an enlarged version of the picture with red, yellow and green buttons on top. Any suggestions on what is wrong, or what can be corrected ?

    And there is the problem. Your pictures are opening up in Mac's own Preview app.
    Do you want all your jpegs to open in Photoshop, or only when you are in Bridge?
    Selecting a program to open a certain file is called: File Type Association.
    You can choose this at the MacOS level or the Bridge level.
    Here's how to do both:
    Either MacOS or Bridge has the wrong app associated with the jpeg. Let's start with MacOS
    Close Bridge and Preview. Select one of your jpegs, and press Cmd i, That will bring up the file info window.
    Go down to the "Open with" section of File Info.
    Choose Photoshop CS4 and click on the Change All... button to apply this choice to every jpeg on your Mac.
    Then open Bridge and see if double-clicking opens it in Photoshop.
    Now that means all jpegs on your Mac will open in Photoshop.  Maybe you don't want that.
    You can set your jpegs to open in Preview when Bridge is closed.
    When you open Bridge, there is Preferences > File Type Associations where you can direct Bridge to open the jpegs in Photoshop when you are viewing in Bridge.

  • When using Hotmail my email text appears black, but when I look at them in my sent folder they are going from black to grey. Can this be resolved?

    When using hotmail my email text appears blac, but when I get replies or look at the sent folder the emails are partly black text and then go grey, how do I stop this happening all the time please

    Which email service provider are you using?  You can install DropBox and share links to the files that way.  When you snd to your self (cc or bcc) do the items show up?  What file types and sizes are these attachments?  Are you sending over WiFi or cellular connection?  Try using more than one email account from a different provider (Gmail, yahoo, iCloud, etc) and see if it is email provider specific.

  • Program closes after connection is made

    So this program closes after the client connects. It runs rt.exec("C:\\WINDOWS\\beep.exe"); and immediately closes. How do I make so the program doesn't close, and continues to accept connections. Thank you for the help.

    import javax.swing.JPanel;
    public class server {
          //final static      int   serverPort   = 4323;                      // server port number
          static int serverPort   = 4333;
          static boolean beep=false;
    public static void main(String args[]) {

                clientSocket = sock.accept();

              //  System.out.println("Message from the client >" + msg);
                //pw.println("Got it!");                                      // send msg to client
                    try

          } catch (Throwable e) {
                System.out.println("Error " + e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
    }

    I'm not sure what exception it gets. But it gets one for sure. However, the problem is with the code. I know something is wrong with it, but what exactly. Its really just a few lines, and it looks fine to me. Am I missing something important? I can't figure out why the program keeps closing after a connection is established.

  • DEP crashes Adobe Reader 9.4.2 when using attach to email

    Hi
    I face a problem on our two windows 2008 SP2 RDS servers. When viewing a .pdf file in Adobe Reader 9.4.2 and using the attach to email option the program gets shut down by Data Execution Prevention and crashes AR. Usually with one of these errors.
    Faulting application AcroRd32.exe, version 9.4.2.220,  time stamp 0x4d467676,  faulting module dhcpcsvc.DLL, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e03708, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00001895, process id 0x3e04, application start time 0x01cbe879dbad53f0.
    sometimes its dhcpcsvc6.dll too.
    We're running Outlook 2007.
    It is not possible to add AcroRD32.exe to the exceptionlist for DEP.
    Any word on how to fix this?

    Could someone from Adobe respond to this specific issue so that we know we are being heard?  Will the fix for the print issue also resolve the 'attach to email' problem?  Is there any work around other than telling users to attach directly from their email programs?
    Thanks in advance for your response to our concerns.

  • Messaging/Email Force Close after Update

    I am having issues with both messaging and email after the update this morning.  Both of the apps are force closing.  For messaging, it force closes when I try to send a text, and for email, it force closes when I open an email.  Anyone else having issues?  I have cleared the cache, and rebooted my phone twice. Any suggestions?  I cannot get through to Verizon for assistance.

        Hi jo42 - Let's get you back to business! Are you using the native Messaging application? Are you using standard email app or Gmail? Try starting the phone in Safe Mode to see if there are any corruptions present in other applications. http://support.verizonwireless.com/support/devices/knowledge_base.html/69429/
    If the performance improves we will have to then find out which application is the culprit or complete a hard reset to clear all corruptions. http://support.verizonwireless.com/support/devices/knowledge_base.html/69819/
    Please keep me updated on the status!

  • Dashboard does not work properly when using Word

    This problem occurs persistently. If I am typing something in Word and want to switch over to my Dashboard to use the dictionary or write on a stickie note, two things may happen. If the widget is already selected and ready to be used, then nothing will happen and I can use it properly. However, if I want to click on multiple widgets, then my dashboard will quickly slide over and go back to Word as if I had chosen to exit Dashboard. This only happens when I use Word. Why is this happening and how do I fix it??
    It is frustrating to try and type something in Word, go to my Dashboard to use the dictionary, only to be flung back to Word. The only found remedy is clicking on the desktop and then going to the Dashboard to use my widgets.

    I opened my Word for Mac 2011, opened a document, and Then opened my Dashboard on top of that and used the Dictionary to look up a definition, and changed the month on the Calendar widget, and changed my stock graph interval.  It all worked just as it was supposed to: fine.  You apparently have a corrupted file somewhere.  I do not know where.
    Hope this helps

  • How to insert blank page into pages document when using word processing mode?

    I've recently created a 50+ page document using Pages '09. I started the document using word processing mode. Now, when I view in thumbnail mode and try to insert a blank page somehwere in the middle of the document, it won't allow me to select where I want. It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section. I believe this is because I am in word processing mode. My question is, can I convert the document to layout mode so that each page represents it's own section, without losing what work I've already done? And if so, how?
    The document is entirely text boxes and images, so I don't have any need for word processing space. I just need new pages to act as blank templates for the text boxes and images I create.
    Is it possible to keep all my work as is, and convert the document to layout mode vs. word processing mode?
    Thanks!

    It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section.
    That's because they are one section. You must insert section breaks to separate them. There is no need to use page layout which does make each page a separate section. You have to manually add each page & use text boxes or other containers for the text & link the text boxes.

  • Firefox sync, I had to register for the second time using the same email id. After second registration, the new one and the old one do not sync. ????

    I am using firefox sync for more than a year. Last week, when I tried to set up sync on my work computer, it tells me that the email id is unknown and to register. Anyway I registered. But it is starting from scratch. None of my old stuff synced to this PC.
    In my home computer I am using the same email id, and it has all the data. It is still syncing the data to the server. At least I think it does. Because I have not seen any Sync errors in my home computer.
    I want to know, how can I login with the same email id in two different computers, but have different data in each.

    Homeuser66,
    If you are running Firefox 29, with the new version of Sync, see this KB article - [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]
    Do that before trying to add a new device.

  • No XML file attachment when using Submit by Email button

    Hello all -
    I'm using LiveCycle Designer 8.0 to create a simple form, and am using the Submit by Email button to return the user supplied data. When I save the form and test it with Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.1, the email goes through just fine, but there is no attachment. No XML file, no nothing. Just a blank email with my signature block at the bottom. Has anybody else experienced this? Any ideas on what could be wrong? All I want is the XML file.

    You have multiple options to sending whole PDF format.
    1) Set the submit button to submit whole PDF format by using a mailto: [email protected] in the submit button action URL.
    2) Set the submit button to fire a javascript that submits whole PDF format. See Adobe's Javascript reference guide for instructions.
    Note: Methods #1 and #2 require Adobe Acrobat or Extended Reader Rights; because, Adobe Reader users are restricted to submitting just the data formats; such as FDF,XML, XFDF, XDP, and HTML. Beware extending reader rights to a PDF form using Adobe Acrobat places end user EULA restrictions, such as not more than 500 end user submissions for each form.
    My Recommendations:
    #3) Set the submit button to point to a URL of a server-side script; such as ASP.net. Then set the format to a data format; such as FDF, XML, XFDF, or XDP; and use ASP.net and iTextSharp (Free) to merge the data with a blank PDF form; and attach the submission to an outbound SMTP mail message and send without 3rd party email software such as MS OUTLOOK.
    #4) A combination of #1 and #3; where you enable usage rights on the PDF using Adobe Acrobat; and send to a server-side script which bypasses client-side email software.
    Check out the following website for online examples that submit to a server side script:
